The Site
Gosfield Lake Resort is a private family run leisure park, set in the heart of rural Essex, close to Constable Country and right on the Essex Way. The 36-acre lake and surrounding countryside combine to create a natural beauty spot, where clear summer evenings give way to spectacular sunsets. The natural sheltering provides perfect skiing conditions, and this featured together with a full international slalom course and jump make the facilities ideal.
